For the second straight week, a Tennessee Titans player you wouldn’t expect notched the highest overall grade of any player on the team who qualified.
Second-year linebacker Monty Rice’s 87.8 overall Pro Football Focus grade was the highest on the team, but he only played on six snaps, which doesn’t reach our 10-snap minimum to be considered.
Second to Rice was 2022 undrafted free agent signing and cornerback Tre Avery, who posted an 81.7 in 18 snaps.
Avery had the Titans’ highest grade last week, was named PFF’s “Rookie of the Week” for Week 11, and he received a shoutout from head coach Mike Vrabel during his Monday presser, so the rookie has been on quite a run lately.
Vrabel said Tre Avery was “excellent” and their best corner yesterday.

On offense, wide receiver Treylon Burks posted the highest PFF grade with a 77.4. The rookie was second to only Derrick Henry with 70 receiving yards, and one of his four catches went for 51 yards.
